whether it is looking and really “seeing” in the littlest thing,

or in the vastness of the larger before you:

Ingesting, breathing in – deeply,

totally engulfed in the NOW of existence:

Resting in the present – meditating – “being”:

If you do not do this each day – that means today –

and do not make this a practice in your life – trust me;

you will never be fully alive –

but rather only living on the veneer

of what you could become.
